Doesn't matter who copied it down. Oral history is just as good and authoratative as eyewitness, sorry Charlie

Sorry, there is no independent evidence that this is unedited eyewitness testimony. It's hearsay. If you attempted to enter in a similar document as "testimony" in a court of law, it would not be classed as such. It's hearsay.

Does that mean the oral histories of the Amerindians, especially of their interactions with their gods, is "just as good and authoratative as eyewitesses?"
